Adaptive Reuse of a Theatre

Instead of closed-off programs, I've reimagined these activities to spill out onto the slab, while more private performance spaces are enclosed as micro-theatres within studio rooms, allowing users to walk by and observe. Skylights and larger windows, inspired by the existing ones, introduce a sense of openness and permeability. As users enter, they encounter exposed trusses and the possibility of movement towards the roof, allowing the building to be perceived as a single entity, with glimpses of activity visible from the outside. Inside, the space transforms into something open and distinct, offering a reflection of its past while embracing its current form. The interplay of old brick and new steel beams highlights the contrast between the past and present, inviting users to appreciate both.
